Dolphin Hybrid

OK gang. For my next project I plan to convert a Dolphin into a HCCR. First question who can personally recommend a solenoid and where to purchase from?

Hi! I asked about this a couple of moths ago and was recommended a solenoid from narked@90

Oxygen solenoid

Don't have any personal experience with it yet

Hi, does that mean you have bought one and plan to use it soon?

Nope, havn't got around to it yet. Need some new winter outdoor stuff so it will be a couple of month before I can afford it.

OK, I'll ask, what is 'H' CCR?

hybrid, meaning an eCCR with a continuous flow of oxygen, either a needle valve or orifice.

In my case I shall have a Swagelok needle valve and a "Push the Button" O2 overide, the Shearwater controller will be set at 0.4 acting as the parachute!

Laguna Research has a neat little "ESM"... external solenoid module...

Hi Hoppy. I think it's a bit OTT for me + located too far away to sort easily if I should have any problems and they seem to be using K1 sensors which I'm not too happy with. But interesting all the same, looks good for the MK 15's though!

Many thanks for responding.

Not to dig this up again, but I am just running the Laguna Research UDC + PPO2 module in an SCR Azimuth. It is solid piece of kit, and the best advantage for the Laguna Research is it is 100% modular. This means in the future I can buy a HUD, use my UDC for solenoid manual injection, buy two UDC for redundancy, by the aforementioned ESM for complete ECCR mode, or just dive like it is. You can use any sensors with the Laguna Kit, both K1 and r-22. K1-D isused for the size benefits, although I hear you can get R-22 type sensors in a k1 size.

Plus the UDC is compatible with the new CO2 sensors coming out. Just a plug for Laguna Research. Wayne is very helpful and dives a ECR modded dolphin too.
